Illinois Fighting Illini in the Final Four
Can you believe it? The game is almost here. On his
blog, Mark Tupper says
At last, here we go! and gives an update on Illinois' open practice yesterday among other things. Big Ten Wonk says
final-ly the games are here. Elsewhere in the blogosphere that's worth noting is
illinitalk's plan to give live updates from the dome.
At ESPN.com, Pat Forde says Illinois will win the game because they are the only team with
nothing but juniors and seniors among its top six. Mike DeCourcy says, in order to win, Illinois needs to
defend against Myles and play like they did for
the final four minutes of regulation against Arizona and the first three minutes of overtime.
Here's the official Illinois
game notes and the link to
Gametracker. Gotta run. The pregame is on!
